Early morning wake routine, breakfast assistance, and thorough verbal handover to the day team.
Shift logging and incident documentation on the supplied device before shift end.

Overnight shifts can feel isolated at other agencies, but here on-call picks up on the second ring and you always get a detailed verbal handover.
